Our Story

Founded by a goalkeeper, for goalkeepers.

Coach Laurent played semi-pro in France before a breakaway collision ended his playing career. He built a different life — became a general manager in the French Caribbean — and then, in 2019, arrived in the US and founded MVP Goalkeeper Training.

He joined Monmouth University as goalkeeper coach in 2022. Coached Dymora — now a professional goalkeeper — to Best Goalkeeper honors and First Team distinction in 2023 and 2024. In 2024, began specialist work with Gotham FC's starting goalkeeper, supporting her return to play from injury.

"We coach in the Goalplayers philosophy. Private, semi-private, clinics — every MVP goalplayer gets the best experience we can build."

From travel youth to D1 college, we've placed more than 20 goalkeepers into college programs in the last four years — All Americans, ODP, ECNL, EDP, MLS Next. Every keeper gets a tailored plan: technical, tactical, mental, and the path that fits their level.


Our Approach

Five pillars. One complete keeper.

Goalkeeping is more than reflexes. Every MVP session works across all five areas — because a complete keeper has to be ready in all of them.

01

Technical

Catching, parrying, distribution, footwork. Mastery of the techniques that make goalkeeping efficient and reliable.

02

Tactical

Positioning, angles, decision-making. Knowing when and where to apply the right technique in the right moment.

03

Physical

Power, speed, explosiveness, agility, balance. The athletic foundation the modern keeper depends on.

04

Mental

Confidence, focus, resilience. Bouncing back from a goal conceded. The leader your defense needs to hear.

05

Game IQ

Reading the game, anticipating play, recognizing patterns. The difference between reacting late and being already there.

MVP is different from the rest. Some teach you skills, some teach you discipline, some teach you the mindset. Only a few help you with everything. MVP has trained my daughter Sofia in all aspects of GK and life. She went to her first big ID Camp at only 16 — D1 and D2 schools could talk to her — and she dominated.

Coach Laurent is absolutely amazing! He's been training my son for a few years now and has taken him from being good to great. Laurent is the best choice when it comes to goalie development. He is a true leader and mentor both on and off the field.

Coach Laurent and staff are the best of the best! My daughter has been training with MVP and her game and skill set just keep improving. She truly enjoys all training sessions. If there were 10 stars I'd give them all. Highly recommend!

My daughter has been training with Laurent / MVP for years, and while her goalkeeping skills have improved so much, what I love most is how much fun she has in every session. Whether it's a clinic, camp, or training, she always comes home smiling.

My daughter plays at PDA North on the 2012 Blue team. Laurent and his staff are absolutely awesome, extremely professional, and care about each and every kid at his training sessions. My daughter loves going to training and enjoys training with Laurent and his staff.

We found Laurent and MVP only about 4 months ago and I regret not starting with him sooner! Before MVP, Mckenzie was a self-taught full-time goalie. Her skills have improved immensely in such a small amount of time.
